You are safe, loved, and always, eternally guided towards a life of greater love! Your guidance is never given to you as a well laid out plan. You may be given an overview of your future creations and even ideas as to how they can evolve, but your guidance as to "what to do next" will arrive only in each moment.

So for example, you may get a feeling, "I am going to move, create a new business then meet someone!" You may get a general feel as to where you are moving and what kind of house you will live in. You may have ideas about the kind of business and/or relationship you wish to create. You may even receive visions or feelings about these things. In your human terms, these are "previews" - chances to look at a possible future and say, "Yes Dear God! This is what I wish to create," or perhaps, "I'd like to change a few things before we go down that road."

These ideas, visions, and feelings are your blueprints. Tweak them! Modify them. Get them the way you like them and then own your creations dear ones... for when you are able to truly own what you want, that is when the guidance will start to arrive.

We know many of you will ask, "What if I don't know what I want?" Well, dear ones to some degree you always do! You know how you want to feel. For example you may know only that you wish to live in a place that has a small town feel but close to a big city. Or you may wish to live in the countryside, or in the heart of a city. You may not care about locale – you may only know that you wish to live someone affordable, beautiful to you, and with nice neighbors, or no neighbors. Write down what you DO know. Write down the feelings that matter. Write down as much as you are clear about. Then start there. Some of you know exactly what type of relationship you want, what type of business you want, others just know you want to be happy! You want the love of your life, or a business that pays the bills and expresses your heart. Start there. The detail with which you specify your creations does not matter. What does matter is that you "own" the parts of them that do matter to you!

Then dear ones, trust each moment. Trust when you get the urge to do something, that is a step on your path. When you feel strongly that you do not want to do something, that is also guidance... in the moment. We in the heavens always guide you... in the moment... on the path of greater love towards the destination you have chosen.

In reality, no matter what you create, you are all striving to create a loving reality. You just choose to express and experience that in different ways. So stop trying to figure out "the best path," "the right path," "your purpose," "your ideal life," and just drop into your hearts and see what you find in there right here and right now. Then commit to that internally.

If right now your heart says "I want to find time to have a nap," then commit to that. Dear angels help me find time to have a nap!" If you want a cup of coffee then dear ones, commit to that, "Dear angels, I'd like a cup of coffee..." You may get the urge to go to your kitchen and make one; to stop at a store. Someone may give you a gift of a cup of coffee. See how and when the urge shows up! See how your creation makes you feel.

If you'd like your entire life to change so you can be happy, commit to that. "Dear God, Dear angels, show me how to change my life so I can be truly happy." Take one step at a time as the urge arises. In all things great and small, when the desire arises from your heart, commit to it and then take one guided step at a time as the urges arise. Walk down the road. If you change your mind, we will change with you!

We love you dear ones. You are equal with the angels. We are all born of one love. You are on the earth striving to understand that you are made of this love. You are creating things, situations, relationships, experiences, all for one purpose - to explore your relationship with this love. The form does not matter... the love does. And we love you enough to help you explore love and to guide you to it... in any form you choose!

Last week we talked about letting go of old things and dense energies. Today, we wish to discuss letting go of old habits.

In the heavens, we think you are perfect now, even as you evolve! However, it is the nature of all of life itself to grow, evolve, and continue to deepen its expression of love.

Take a few minutes and think about this question. What kind of person do you want to be? Most of you can answer this, at least to a degree. You know you want to speak more kindly, live in balance, act abundantly, or be more patient. Perhaps some of you want to be more proactive. You may want to be more gracious, or you may want to learn to kindly stand up for yourself. Each one of you, if you take time can imagine the kind of person you would ideally love to be.

Try living as if you are this person, just for a day. Very quickly you will begin to see your old habits rise up. We'd rather call them habits than issues! These are just ways of thinking and being that you have learned, repeated, and become accustomed to. It is only when you begin to pay attention to being someone different that you will notice them. And this is good dear ones! Celebrate! When you see an old habit, you can begin to change it!

Say you want to be more gracious. You go about your day being very kind and loving to everyone, until someone is rude, and suddenly you find yourself speaking abruptly. Celebrate! Now you see where you can grow into a more gracious person. Conversely say you want to learn to speak up more. You go about your day "faking it until you make it," speaking up, even when it is uncomfortable. Then someone disagrees with you very strongly and you find yourself remaining silent and in fear! Celebrate! You have found an area in which you can grow.

Now take this area in which you would like to grow and really imagine you are "already there." Imagine you handle a rude person with kindness. Imagine you are comfortable lovingly speaking to a strong-minded individual. Imagine you remain in faith rather than falling into fear. Take time each day to see and imagine yourself as this person you want to be. It is only through practice, either internally or externally that you can literally "rewire" your brains to react differently. Just as an athlete must practice many times to make the "shot," catch the ball, or cross the finish line, so too each one of you can practice, if only through your imagination, becoming the person you wish to be.

We love you as you are dear ones. We hope you can too. And we support you in growing even more beautifully into the kind of person you wish to become.

Always when you want to create something new you will need to let go of something old. If you want beliefs that work better for you, you have to work diligently to release old ones that don't. If you want a new house, you must release the old. If you want new clothes, you must clear your closet, and if you want a new relationship you must give up hanging on to all that has gone before.

In truth, your past exists only in your mind, because in truth it is gone. It has washed away like water in a stream and you only carry with you what you remember and what you judge. As soon as you can love the past for what it brought you and taught you, then dear ones, it is over. The energy is released and allowed to flow from you, into the heavens where we, the angels, will help turn it into something so much better. Very much like donating fertilizer, when you give us your past pains, sadnesses, fears, unmet hopes and dreams, and ask that we transform them to love, we will. Like cleaning out your closets, dear ones, regularly giving us your heavy energy will allow you to breathe, and to make room for the new.

Place your hands just in front of your navel as if you are ready to catch something that will be released. Take a breath. Feel any area of your body, mind, or soul that feels heavy. Imagine as you breathe in deeply, that you are gathering this energy into your stomach. Then, as you breath outward imagine you release this dense energy in the form of a ball that gathers up into your hands. It may look dark, cloudy, or simply dense, if you are visual. It may feel prickly, heavy, or just unusual if you feel, or you may just imagine it. Keep breathing in this fashion, gathering heavy energy into the stomach with a slow breath in, then expelling it outward into this ball of energy in your hands. When you feel the ball has become quite heavy, and you are feeling much lighter, hand it upwards to the heavens, and we will take it from you and transmute it to love to be recycled into the universe.

Do this frequently dear ones, perhaps after work each day, or at least once a week. You clean your homes, wash your cars...why not clear yourself on a regular basis so your light can shine more brightly, your body can feel much better, and your mind can be at peace.

This year, we ask you to trust that you are loved, cared for, and that the Creator of the Universe wants to help you re-create your lives to flow with greater grace and ease.

When you find yourself struggling, or confused, drop into your hearts. Instead of asking, "What should I do?" ask instead, "What do I really feel like doing now, given life exactly as it is?" In this dear ones you will find your guidance. It sounds too easy. It is easy however. The animals do not ever ask what they "should" do. The stars never wonder where they "should" go. All of nature simply follows its instinctive path. And in that state of complete and total trust, all needs are cared for. Dear ones, yours are too, but humanity has strayed from its natural state of being.

It is easy to over think your lives, and while we certainly encourage thinking, when you are not clear on a course of action, the answer will always lie in your heart, in each moment.

Bless you dear ones. You are all so loved, so guided, so cared for you... allow yourselves to live more naturally this year and your lives will flow so much more smoothly.

I started channeling weekly messages from the angels after 9/11/2001, in an attempt to reach as many people as possible with the angels' words of hope and inspiration. I didn't realize at the time that we would become an international community of lightworkers dedicated to expanding our capacity to receive and share God's love in the world.

Each week's newsletter contains an angel message, a message from me explaining how I put the angels' teachings to work in my life, and various other announcements about classes, events, and new products. I would love to help you experience the love, wisdom, and guidance that are available to us all.
